Honestly I wasn't a huge fan of the Oatmeal for a long time. (I prefer "crowdsourced" rage comics.) But when I saw Matt's really fucking cool Nicola Tesla museum fundraiser I emailed to tell him that I once made a Tesla-themed World of Warcraft skin pack in high school. We totally hit it off! Now me and Matt get drunk at least once a week and talk about how bad patents are.

It's a myth perpetrated by generations of powerful misandrists that men's rights activists can't be nice. I dislike Derpy for story-related reasons, so I would like to refrain from answering that question.
